Big ambitions, uneven craft: four April 2026 releases reviewed

Apex, Desert Warrior, Fuze, and Michael arrive with big budgets and big ideas, delivering moments of excitement but often losing focus in service of spectacle: Apex benefits from Charlize Theron and a tense survival setup but leans into campy horror; Desert Warrior aims for a feminist epic yet struggles with a uneven script and pacing despite striking desert visuals and solid performances; Fuze is a lean, well-edited crime thriller that amasses momentum in the first half but falters with a late twist; Michael relies on nostalgia and showmanship to evoke Michael Jackson but glosses over deeper questions about the artist. Overall, the lineup showcases ambition that isn’t always matched by craft.

Kat Graham posted that certain scenes she filmed, including ones with Diana Ross, were cut from Lionsgate’s Michael Jackson biopic Michael due to ‘certain legal considerations’ ahead of its April 24 release. The final cut omits Ross, and reports say other edits also removed elements such as portions of Jackson’s storyline about abuse after the estate uncovered a past settlement. The film stars Jaafar Jackson, Colman Domingo, Nia Long, Miles Teller, Laura Harrier, and Larenz Tate.
